Incompatible software

The following software is not compatible with PopClip. This means that PopClip will not appear when you select text in the application.

Whilst PopClip does work with Microsoft Word 2011, it can sometimes behave erratically. PopClip may be slow to appear, or may not appear.

OnLive

OnLive may crash if you use it while PopClip is running.

OS X Launchpad

For a small number of users, clicking folders in Launchpad while PopClip is running may result in the folder not opening properly.

PDF Expert

See above.

Safari - Google Docs

PopClip works only erratically with Google Docs in Safari. Sometimes PopClip will fail to appear, and other times copying and pasting text will behave oddly. It may also cause Safari to emit a beep. I recommend using Google Chrome at the host browser if you want to use PopClip with Google Docs.

Sublime Text

PopClip works generally well, but will interrupt the 'triple click and drag' technique to select multiple lines. Also, with certain packages installed, PopClip will not work. The packages I know of are "Path Tools" and "Arduino-like IDE".
